The Racing Buddha – New Review
We are starting a new review today of a horse racing service called The Racing Buddha.
This service comes from the Matthew Walton stable of tipsters, who has brought us a number of top performers over the years, including Scottish Confidential, the Golf Insider and the Irish Cash Consortium.
The Racing Buddha focuses on identifying value selections across UK and Irish horse racing.
The tipster behind the service apparently has a storied background in racing as an owner, broadcaster, journalist – and backer. So in theory they should know what they are doing!
Their approach is centred around disciplined staking and careful race analysis, with the aim of uncovering runners whose odds appear bigger than their true chances.
Results published for the service so far look encouraging.
From 343 bets there have been 130 winners, giving a solid 37.9% strike rate. That has generated a profit of 97.84 points to advised prices, which increases to 136.89 points at Betfair SP.
To put that into perspective, anyone following the tips with £10 stakes would have made £978 profit to advised prices, or £1,368 to Betfair SP.
That is a very respectable return from a service operating with a reasonably healthy strike rate.
Selections are typically focused on win bets, and as with most professional racing services the key will be whether the value identified by the tipster can continue to beat the market over the long term.
We started receiving tips at the start of the year, so we will record results from that point onwards.
As always, results will be tracked independently and updated here regularly so you can see exactly how the service performs during our trial.
In the meantime, you can check out The Racing Buddha for yourself here.
